Ontology Maintenance

Knowledge change and evolution is a key issue in the HCLS areas. Especially there is a need for the use of old data against a new ontology and the use of new data against an ontology. As an ontology evolves so do the mappings of that ontology to the underlying database schemas.

Issues such as versioning, history and diffs, provenance, dependency propagation and ontology lifecycles are of critical importance in the HCLS areas.
